Pros and cons of Ann Arbor after 14 years

Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.
